More than 200 articles provide in-depth reference and historical information on business and work, family and community, housing, clothing, diet, culture and leisure, health and medicine, and religion, as well as aspects of daily life particular to each set, such as the business of slavery and plantation life in the first Library set, Slavery in America.

American Decades RUSA Outstanding Reference Source New York Public Library Outstanding Reference “This comprehensive, unbiased coverage of the decade’s major issues is organized such that readers can find both minutiae and broad trends in American culture. Definitely a must-have resource for both school and public libraries. Highly recommended.” — The Book Report (May/June 2001) NEW TITLE American Decades is a cross-disciplinary source for junior and high school students and teachers, public librarians and general researchers who need a single, consistent reference to document and analyze periods of contemporary American social history. It is designed as an alternative to maintaining a collection of widely variable, and often incomplete, chronologies that take the form of picture books, encyclopedias, monographs and statistical sources. None offers the single-source convenience and consistency required to easily compare social history trends from decade to decade. Each volume of this lauded set concentrates on the social aspects of a 10-year period in American history, covering arts, medicine and health, media, education, world events, religion, government and politics, lifestyles and social trends, law and justice, religion, business and the economy and sports. 10 vols.
